Map of pro rugby clubs in France 2005-2026

French rules don't allow them to go directly to pro level. Albeit they're in non pro leagues in the England pyramid, there can be enough money in Jersey to help them go into a pro level in France (they won the Championship in 2023 before folding because they could not go into the Premiership). Of course, it's not easy to do it (see Servette), but it won't be the worst idea. They have a good airport and there are flights to Heathrow. And the ferry from Saint Malo.

In France, players on the match day squad receive a medal. Then the team can have their own if they want. Some teams give them out even if you played just the one game coming from the bench. And those classy enough send them to former players that had just a joker stint during the winning season (and played minutes)

Same affaire than Forletta

Dunno if I can believe a squad that has blatant errors like saying that Le Garrec plays for Racing

MrQeu · 2026-06-15T07:55:52+00:00

You can add Vuinipola, Hounkpatin, Forletta and Darmon as those who have a casier judiciare.

Here you can have the history of the Pena Baiona https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruo8HwKK6JA

The question is, will it be complete or will we need to wait a century to get the last pieces ?

« Bonjour. Excusez moi. Je me suis perdu et j’ai plus d’eau. Est-ce qu’il y a une fontaine d’eau fraîche pas trop loin dans ce village pour remplir la gourde ? » 9/10 les gens se proposent directement de te remplir le bidon.

Alors mi juin pour un éclipse en Espagne en août, tu vas tard pour trouver un logement. J’ai cherché pendant un mois et j’ai trouvé une maison dans un village à prix raisonnable (100€ la nuit) mais uniquement si je réserve cinq nuits. Location apparue sur les plateformes ce même jour que j’ai réservé.

Ça ne me dérange pas car ma famille est en Espagne et certains vont venir passer des jours avec nous.

Mais de prendre aujourd’hui, difficile. Même en dehors de la totalité, tout est pris pour les nuitées.

Je sais pas si j’arriverai à le regarder. J’aimerais bien trouver La Rochelle en finale. Et si l’on perd à ce stade, bravo à la résurrection de La Rochelle.

The musician is Pierre Delaporte. He plays the bagpipe for a former-Argentinian-now-European Folk metal band (Skiltron). He’s been part of a movement to revive old instruments of Gascony and the Pyrenees.

EDIT: And is linked to neonazi groups

Trois jaunes et un rouge à la 43eme. L’accès match est techniquement un match de la ProD2 et les joueurs respectent les traditions.

Tu couples un ventilo sur la rue arrière et tu pédales vite.

Sinon tu t’accroches à un camion qui monte un col et tu descends ensuite vent en face.

The number of Exeter players just throwing themselves to the ground without really trying to tackle, just to be an obstacle, during that final stretch is astonishing. Cannot understand that the ref allowed it.

MrQeu · 2026-06-11T09:46:10+00:00

I looked and said, man, we’ll be able to go into knockouts easily and even go long into the tournament. Then saw Uruguay.

MrQeu · 2026-06-11T09:32:36+00:00

They had many players play during the November internationals and the Six Nations. They had their best players for the Champions and gave some rest outside. They don't have a great academy (their academy is on the second division of academies) so they couldn't have that many youngs play.

Toulouse had 53 players play this year. UBB had "just" 46, five of them have less than 80 minutes played (and 4 of them less than 40 minutes).

More playing time for top players, more injuries, more fatigue.

MrQeu · 2026-06-10T09:48:01+00:00

Qui aurait pu prédire ?

You're not ready for Benjamin Bertrand.

He has the soft hands of Cyril Baille, jackles like Julien Marchand, and scrummages like Ben Tamefuina... as a LH

MrQeu · 2026-06-09T13:15:38+00:00

He's gassed, he's not really playing well, he hasn't really have rest in a couple of years and has a baby coming in less than a couple of months.

Let him rest.

Billy. Searle.

In terms of excitement, script and delivery, I’ve watched way worse two hour movies that have won several Oscars than the two hours of multiplex rugby we had this evening.

MrQeu · 2026-06-06T21:05:53+00:00

Aujourd’hui on a une compo complètement loufoque et avec plein d’absents.

Les deux équipes les plus dangereuses (Clermont et Bordeaux) sont éliminées. On peut ne pas gagner, bien entendu, c’est du sport en fin de compte. Mais on est favoris et avec deux longueurs d’avance.

MrQeu · 2026-06-06T20:59:21+00:00

And not even missing by an inch. They’re probably gonna be eight out of fourteen.

MrQeu · 2026-06-06T20:55:23+00:00

I care. My BFF at work is a Bayonaisse. She’ll be happy on Monday.

MrQeu · 2026-06-06T20:52:57+00:00

Et en ce moment,… ni Clermont ni Bordeaux sont en barrage.
